About the Founders of Tomorrow bootcamp

Each year Founders of Tomorrow brings together 60 change makers for a five-day transformative educational experience under an annual theme. During these five days, they learn about disruptive technologies, impact-driven business and global challenges from leading experts, intra- and entrepreneurs in the Nordics.
